Bill,
 
Good point.  I measure mine on the inlet side of the WP, so it would naturally read lower.
 
How's your flying going?  Have you flown off your 40 hours?  Any problems that you would want to share with the group?

Mark,
It depends where the pressure sensor is. Mine is on the outlet side of the water pump, so it measures the static pressure as well as the dynamic head pressure that is forcing the water through the radiator. I have a 10# cap on the reservoir at the low side, and it holds the pressure of the system.

Doug,
 
I paused the video on the EM-2 frames and noticed a couple of things.  RPM showing NOP, Fuel Pressure = 50, Water Pressure = 30.  I normally see about 13 psi WP.  I just though it was interesting that the RPM was INOP.  Maybe he has a separate tach.  Personally, I would be concerned to see 30 psi WP.

Wow...I"m going to have to get a nap!  Meant "I-Tunes" vs e-bay!  Interesting to see his EM-2 in some of the video frames  as he explores various flight regimes!
